Gas prices are now below $2 a gallon at gas stations in Northwest Arkansas -- at least at two gas stations so far.

The two locations are Macadoodles in Springdale off the Elm Springs exit of Interstate 49 and the Walmart gas station off the same exit.

For many drivers it's a dream come true.

We spoke to one driver Tuesday who said he might save close to $120 in December alone compared to what he was paying in October, if the prices stay this low.

Other drivers said it could also mean more presents around the Christmas tree.

One driver said, "I think there are going to be a few presents that we're going to spend more money on than we originally thought. In fact, I know there is. Yeah, I know my son's going to get a notepad that he probably wasn't planning on."

As of Tuesday night, the average price of a gallon of unleaded in Arkansas was $2.35 and dropping.
